“I absolutely loved Sarah’s talks on gardening. I’d never grown anything I could eat before, and she inspired me to grow all kinds of things, from herbs and tomatoes to green leaves and edible flowers! She has a huge knowledge of plants and gardening and her sessions were full of really useful tips, but more than just being informative and helpful, they were interesting, engaging and fun.”

“Sarah created content as part of our nature-based online programme to support individuals throughout national lockdown. Her content was engaging and well researched, it was clear that she has expert knowledge in the field. Sarah mastered the balance of information and hands-on practical activities and was able to adapt these based on participants level of experience. Not only was her content engaging, her presentation style was inspiring and motivating which was much needed during the difficult lockdown period.”
